Feeling Is Believing!

 

Here is the story behind our Posh'n'Go Protein Shampoo for pampurred piggies.  It comes from Karen at Reading Guinea Pig Rescue who hassled Chrissie for several months to make this shampoo!

 

"The challenge began when Chrissie remarked how fantastic Ziggy (Peruvian) looked at a show.  He did, but he was a "Co-Op Pro V" Piggy, not a Gorgeous Guinea. Whilst Gorgeous Guineas shampoo was good for his skin and coat, it didn't have that extra something.

 

I had my first encounter with Protein shampoo as a dog groomer - the Afghans I looked after had a similar coat to Peruvians and we used Body Shop Protein shampoo (diluted well) on them. This stood me in good stead for bathing guineas!

 

Ziggy has a typical Peruvian coat and the only shampoo that made him look his best, unfortunately contained chemicals.   Gorgeous Guineas Posh 'n' Go has given him lasting shine and the much sought after body not achieved by the other shampoos.  Olivia (Peruvian) is not a typical Peruvian being a big ball of fluff!  Gorgeous Guineas Posh 'n' Go has tamed her coat without making it look greasy.  The effect of the shampoo - shine and texture, has lasted over a wheek, longer than the other Gorgeous Guineas shampoos.   According to the ingredients used, the hair should be stronger after several shampoos too.

 

Molly is a 5 year old Texel who had brittle hair that was dry and lifeless - Gorgeous Guineas shampoos were good, but never this good.  Her coat is now soft and has a sheen and gloss that we haven't seen for three years. I'm sure this isn't supposed to be an anti-ageing shampoo but it has made Molly's hair look years younger - feeling is believing!

 

Henry (Sheltie) has an extremely fine coat that goes lank easily.  Posh'n'Go seems to have added  volume to his normally fine hair, and it has stayed like this for over a wheek.  He will benefit most from this as he has brittle hairs - not life threatening, but not nice for a Pampurred Pig:)

Absolutely no need to condition with this shampoo, and only the smallest amount is needed - be warned!  Unlike other commercial shampoos, Posh 'n' Go goes in soooo easily.  The aroma of Geranium is pleasantly fitting of this classy shampoo.

 

Now the "Beautiful People" on Planet Guinea can have their shampoo and wear it knowing it is kind to hair, skin and animals (ie tested on Humans) and they will look and feel Gorgeous. Posh 'n' Go is THE Essensual Silk Shampoo for every piggy!. Bad Hair Days can now be a thing of the past!"
